Date: Sept. 3, 2026 Participant: Rares Mititelu #6338 Race: 2026 Run The Wharf 5K

Quick early rhythm before a very large late drop-off Rares covered 5.00 km in 2:04:04, averaging 24:49 min/km. Through 4 km, he was moving much more strongly: 24:58 at 4 km, a 6:15 min/km average. His opening kilometres were 5:57, 6:21, 6:28, and 6:14, with his fastest segment coming in the first kilometre and a small rebound in the fourth. Position-wise, he was 2,351st overall at 2 km, then 2,584th at 3 km and 4 km, before finishing 3,926th of 5,624. In the mens 2630 division, he moved from 368th at 2 km to 396th at 4 km and 497th at the finish. The key stat is the contrast between the first 4 km and the final kilometre, which accounts for nearly all of the elapsed time. For the next race, the focus should be on maintaining continuity across the full 5 km.
